About the Author

About Us:

We provide books for niche markets. Sometimes traditional publishers cannot earn a return on investment required for publishing in specialized markets. For them, books publishing is expensive and requires a larger customer base than may currently exist in a niche market. For you, this is an incredible opportunity. The doors are wide open for you to publish in small and specialized industry and hobby groups that are often neglected.

Red Bike publishing can help. Additionally, we are registered as a government contractor company with the CCR and VetBiz (DUNS 826859691). Specifically we are a service disabled veteran owned small business.

The Evolution of Red Bike Publishing

Not too long ago, Jeff Bennett left a successful Army career. He had served in intelligence, transportation and wrapped up his career in recruiting. By far the most difficult but rewarding had been his experience as a recruiter. Tell a soldier to take a hill in the heat of battle and they’ll do it and exceed whatever standards you give. However, tell them to successfully encourage people to leave everything they know to become a soldier…that’s a tougher task. Hence, Army recruiting has taught Jeff everything about real marketing.

Prior to his departure from the army Jeff had bought and read all of the books he could on marketing, sales, interviewing and resume writing. Almost everything he had read revealed the same message: Find something you are good at and do it. It took awhile, but the message hit home. Jeff met many local business owners who found themselves succeeding in business doing something they enjoyed.

In his journey to finding the right business Jeff took a job in industrial security. It was fun and he could use his strengths and the transferable skills he had learned in the Army to begin a new niche career. As he learned the intricacies of a facility security officer (FSO), learning about the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM), International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR) and oversight by Defense Security Services (DSS). Jeff certified as an FSO and studied for and passed the Industrial Security Professional (ISP) certification. He also developed a new goal; to be considered a security specialist or expert within five years.

One vital ingredient to Red Bike Publishing’s success is that there are no other comprehensive study books. Jeff began selling eBook version of ISP Certification-The Industrial Security Professional Exam Manual on my website. His business plan called for publishing an eBook to simulate a real test taking environment. However, his customers’ feedback led him to change the plan to offer print versions. Now the books are available everywhere.

This experience led to the point where Jeff could write his first security book and market it using the website www.ispcert.com. Now we have created Red Bike Publishing and her website at http://www.redbikepublishing.com/; all because of similar shortages in niche resources. Now we are meeting more needs with many more books such as NISPOM and ITAR and offering FSO and NISPOM Training, initial security briefings and security awareness training. What began as a desire to teach other security professionals how to study for the exam and increase their chances of passing, has grown to address other specialized industry and hobby shortfalls.

3 Ways to Build Credibility By Teaching a Course

World Class Marketing Installation 1-Bone Fides

World class marketing can be easily executed by self publishers and authors. It is one thing to be good at writing, know the self publishing industry and capable of getting books to market. It’s quite another to become recognized as a leader in your niche industry, recruit assistance within industry and become recognized for the good work. In the second example, your efforts perpetuate themselves as you earn trust; others become force multipliers and quickly engage and support your vision. One way to ensure such success is to cross product market. One way to do that is through professional branding. Of itself branding is not the answer to instant success, but does complete the picture. For example, there are many authors who are very influential and well respected; their work stands alone. Cross product marketing for them would continue to demonstrate their dedication to their industry, technical competence and leadership. When you achieve a recognizable brand, such that your...

How will you publish your book
